So....
Infecting my RL friends with fanfic... another has expressed an interest and I prodded her and she's even now trying to rec a BSG fic to me... ha!
I'm kinda like a typhoid-sally (is that the term??)
But what amused me greatly was the way she broached the subject.
C: So... is fanfiction like... all sex?
K: *Snort* Um... a lot of it is but that's mostly ship stuff. You need to read Gen if you don't want sex.
C: Oh, not that I mind ofcourse.
K: Ha!
I then explained about Het/Slash and Gen and admitted (yes I did!!) to writing slash. I feel I've grown as a person... heh.
But I realised that although I write plot-heavy stuff (the two longer fics I have going at the moment, both the pegb and the hqsga) they're still pretty heavy relationship-based.
Next project - to write a longer Gen piece. I want your votes!!
SGA
SG1
or crossover SGA/SG1
and give me a random word/something that happens/character quote to include.

And I've always heard the term Typhoid Mary, but maybe that's not universal. =>}

And I must say that I'm loving the expaned Blade. It was one of those fics that I originally read and wished it was longer and lo, it happened. Heh. I was stoked.

Yeah.

And hmm... someone says a very sarcastic, "So, you handled THAT well!"

Random phrase: squirrel doots. (Why yes, that's fourth grade boy humor for you, even though I assure you that I'm well past the fourth grade and not a boy. ;-) And if you're unsure what a doot is, its squirrel poo.

jack and daniel come to atlantis (with obligatory Daedalus scene of J/D sex. Or snark I'm easy) jack and john go fishing on a puddlejumper and share an interesting moment together where jack passes some of his knoweldge down to john. and then jack and john make fun of mckay.
or they could make out. but that would make daniel jealous.
i need to go to class now. stupid school keeps me from READING fic. i can request it, suuure, but to sit and read anything longer than a drabble? sigh.

He didn't know whose idea it was exactly but Jack had definitely been the one to say fishing and he had said puddlejumper but it didn't really matter because the end result was both of them sitting on the tailgate of the open jumper, hovering four feet above the green Atlantean ocean below, toes just touching the water and fishing poles in hand.
"Are there actually fish in this water?" Jack had asked and John had shrugged.
"Does there need to be?"
Jack had given him a rueful smile. "Good man," he'd simply said with a nod.
A few moments of quiet had passed and then Jack had turned to him. "So... Rodney's a little - "
"Careful there, that's my scientist you're talking about," John had warned and Jack had looked at him carefully.
"Besides," John had said, "I think Daniel is way more-"
"Watch it... that's my scientist." Jack had said, but his tone was equally light. John had a few moments of musing on whether an archeologist was actually a scientist and probably Rodney's very loud reaction to being compared to a man who studied rocks but the air was warm, the water cool and the fish weren't biting.
It was a day for letting things go.

I applaud you for both thinking ahead on your writing AND for spreading the word (no, that doesn't make you a prior for the Ori).

Is it okay to use song quotes? Cuz, um, yea. I'm a freak. That's where my best ideas come from: songs. If not, I can probably come up with something cool. But I'd probably just steal one from a TV Show or something. *grin*
